Overview

BioBalance Calcium Magnesium with Vitamin D3 combines three important nutrients for bone health and joint mobility. A sustainably harvested red seaweed (Lithothamnium sp.) from the North Atlantic seabed provides a vegetarian source of calcium and magnesium, plus 72 naturally occurring trace minerals including boron. Magnesium citrate is added to give an effective calcium to magnesium ratio of approximately 1.3 to 1 for healthy metabolism and to optimise calcium absorption. Vitamin D3 completes the formula as a vital regulator of calcium absorption and distribution in the body.

Support For

Healthy calcium metabolism

Strong bones and teeth

Joint mobility

Muscle relaxation & heart health

Restful sleep

Calcium is the main mineral component of bones and teeth, and poor absorption is the key contributing factor when bones become so weak, brittle and fragile that they break easily. To build and maintain strong bones and teeth, your body needs adequate supplies of calcium with its companion nutrients magnesium and vitamin D. Boron is a trace mineral used by the body to prevent bone loss, and is lacking in many New Zealand soils. Ocean-derived natural sources are the best way to supplement trace mineral deficiencies.

To maximize bone uptake of dietary calcium, your body must have a proportionate intake of magnesium. These two essential macro-minerals work in close relationship, in a ratio similar to that which our ancestral diet provided – 1.3 calcium to 1 magnesium. The outer limit of a healthy calcium : magnesium balance is the 2:1 ratio found in most supplements (and erroneously promoted as an ideal ratio). Calcium is regulated and controlled by magnesium, and any ratio greater than 2:1 does not support effective calcium metabolism.

Magnesium is also necessary to convert vitamin D3 into its active form, for its role in calcium absorption. Vitamin D3 is the natural form (cholecalciferol) of the hormone-like vitamin our bodies make naturally when our skin is exposed to the sun’s ultraviolet rays. Vitamin D deficiency is much more common than most people realise, even in New Zealand where we enjoy high sunshine hours. Covering up the skin and liberal use of sunblock prevent absorption of the ultraviolet rays needed, which contributes to inadequate vitamin D levels in many people. Vitamin D and magnesium are the top two most common deficiencies in industrially developed countries.

As well as bone health, maintaining muscle condition is another key area where calcium and magnesium work together. A healthy skeleton relies on muscle integrity to keep it mobilised. Calcium’s role is to contract muscle, while magnesium relaxes it. Without enough magnesium muscles can become cramped and sore. Magnesium also helps the body remove used calcium so it doesn’t form crystals that lodge in joints or form bony spurs and arterial plaques. It is very important in heart muscle and cardiovascular health.

While people of all ages and stages of life need good dietary sources of calcium and magnesium to stay healthy, some have a greater need for good quality supplementation of these minerals, together with vitamin D. There is a higher risk of bone loss during pregnancy or post-menopause for women, and in elderly people, those who don’t exercise or go out in the sun much, and people of any age on a low-protein, high-alcohol/caffeine diet.

This supplement provides three important nutrients for healthy bones, teeth and muscles, a restful sleep and a calm nervous system.

This product contains calcium from calcified red algae and does not contain coral.

You're reviewing: Calcium Magnesium with Vitamin D3

I've read many reviews about how this supplement helps sleep.. I was doubtful but since I'm on regular calcium/magnesium supplement (different product with different ratio) anyway, might as well give it a try. Surprisingly I have noticed recently how I could sleep better and less restless at night. Will definitely continue with this.

THOROUGHLY RECOMMEND Review by Karenne

star

I've been using this product for a few weeks and it really helps with getting a better sleep. Feeling much more energised. The other thing I've noticed is the most amazing dreams, which I guess is as a result of deeper sleep!

Best one I've found Review by Anna

star

This is the best calcium & magnesium supplement I've ever tried. I often get restless legs at night which I think might be caused by lack of magnesium? I also had not been sleeping well after surgery. Since taking one of these a day (I take in the early evening) I have noticed a real improvement in the quality of my sleep and have not had restless legs and I've only been taking this for 1 week so far. Thanks Healthpost.

Fantastic Find! Review by Dayna

star

I was referred to taking magnesium due to muscle tension and re-occurring headaches by a pharmacist - whilst I was getting a prescription for muscle relaxers. This product has been fantastic at alleviating that tension. I take twice a day, once in the morning and again at night. It has made a huge difference for me. I have got my parents and aunty onto the product as well.

Restful sleep at last! Review by Cindy

star

My biggest problem with supplements is that I forget to take them... I remembered I had these, and finished off the bottle, with just one capsule each night before bed. From the first night, I had a more restful sleep. I have Myalgic encephalomyelitis, with aching all over, and especially my legs and feet. These helped with that as well - so much so, that I thought I must've been imagining it, until I ran out and had to wait a few days for my new order to arrive. I had the worst night's sleep I'd had in ages, with aching, trembly legs and a fever. My order arrived yesterday, and I took one capsule with lunch, and another before bed, and I didn't even disturb the covers, I slept so soundly, and my legs weren't aching or trembling. I'll definitely remember to take them from now on. Thank you!
